Answer:
Napoleon III was a French Emperor between 1852-1870. Although Napoleon governed the Empire with an authoritative fist, he established a Legislative branch and Ministers. The Legislative branch had the sole function of reviewing laws and refusing to accept any law. They could not make laws directly. Napoleon III also established the Senate and the State Council who acted as Judges. It was not until 1860 that Napoleon III governed the Empire with a free hand devoid of absolute authority.
Napoleon III regime witnessed a lot of positive effects on economic growth. He created investment banks and polices. He set up activities that helped in reshaping the Paris economy and increase the value of the Urban area. There was also a massive move to construct railroads. His regime also witnessed a low unemployment rate, and workers were paid their wages in full.
The shortcoming of his regime was that he encouraged wars, he led an aggressive army, he eventually lost to Russia, and was sent out of France on exile.
